Key terms and concepts
Providers approved under the TEQSA Act are required to report data for all domestic, overseas, onshore and offshore students enrolled in or undertaking a course of study leading to a higher education award of the organisation.
...
The data reported in the Student submission provides:
a profile of each student/course/unit of study combination for a reporting year
the student load (equivalent full time student load or EFTSL) for all units of study undertaken in the reporting year
the Unit of Study Completions Status (element 355 PIR) for every unit of study undertaken in the reporting year.
If a student is undertaking more than one course in the same reporting year there may be more than one record on the student submission for that student.
...
Each record in the Student submission must have a unique combination of values for:
Student identification code (element 313)
Course code (element 307)
Unit of study code (element 354)
Unit of study census date (element 489)
These elements are the key identifiers for a student record.
